Trailgator

[lozcs]

So, I've bought a trailgator on ebay - nice route to where it is - anyone who has one think it'l be OK to pick up on my bike and ride 25 miles home with it? Or should I just take the car?

anyone?

If it still has the clamp that let's you store it against the rear seat stays, then yes.

Is it just the gator or is it attached to a bike! Either way, ride home.

I didn't realise could be clamped in place - perfect....

Just my bike - didn't realise it would clamp in place attached - will ride to collect...

If you have a rack on, you can't use the bottom stay fitting but you can just lash it to the rack. Make sure you take some spanners 10mm and either side, can't recall the exact size but it's around there.

Also tape and cable ties, just in case !

I'd love to see the seller's faces when you tell them it's a 50 mile round trip ! On the BIKE !

Thanks,that picture helps - I'll probably put a rack on and secure the back to the rack straight out...
